Having noticed the 5th Challenge Dungeon<\/a> had been added I decided to start playing again, bringing two new<\/a> builds<\/a> (though the Mage Hunter was long planned) up through Elite.<\/p>\n

After that came some re-speccing: Only minor changes were made to the Sentinel<\/a> and Purifier<\/a> (who both then completed Ultimate), but the Oppressor<\/a> and Apostate<\/a> went through a major revision. In the first case I came to the conclusion that a Defiler<\/a> would make better use of dual Gargabol pistols<\/a> (though I have yet to find one), while in the second the damage types\/variety seemed extremely unfocused.<\/p>\n

Changes were also made to my Sorcerer, Commando, Tactician, Witchblade, Spellbreaker, Elementalist, & Templar concepts, while new concepts for a Trickster, Paladin, and Conjurer were drawn up. All of these builds, by-the-by, are available packaged together on the Guides page<\/a> (or right here<\/a>) with leveling guidelines written up for the ones I’ve actually used. There’s also a recently created list<\/a> of all the various skills\/items that can reduce resistances on the Guide page for those interested (and the Area Outline<\/a> that’s been there forever has been updated). Those are all mainly for personal use though, since having to repeatedly search GrimTools<\/a>‘ database is a pain, so don’t expect much\/any polish.<\/p>\n

The question now is “What to do next?”. On the one hand I want to try out the Spellbreaker<\/a> and Elementalist<\/a> builds, on the other hand I still vaguely want to replay Greedfall<\/a>, and on the third hand I think it might be a good idea to get the clutch of existing builds stuck at the end of Normal all up through Elite to free up some Stash space; max-level Legendaries\/Epics are divided among seven characters, while the Stash holds Potions\/Mandates\/Universal sets, excess Component\/Relics, two pages for mid-level Epics\/Legendaries that universally increase class skills, and then the last two pages are devoted to double-rare rares and acting as a transfer space for newly found max-level Legendaries\/Epics.<\/p>\n

Inventory Tetris<\/a> is no joke.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
